So hard to leave books! I am giving away so many right now. And after I read each one, I share it, both physically and/or electronically, with a friend. Books are so dear!
Very nice, Marc. I too know that feeling, as does my daughter who inspired the following which featured in Sonam Chhoki's 'Children' Per Diem, The Haiku Foundation 2012…

Do not mourn your books:
they always exist somewhere
when not on your shelf.

Especially in this digital age. Many are now in the clouds.

Although at that stage it was toys – it's much more difficult to get rid of books!

Poignat. One day books may be our only link to information….until people forget how to read.
